Food stamps

So yesterday I needed to go grocery shopping and I decided to go at 8pm because I thought maybe it would be pretty dead there...WRONG! Not only was it unbelievably busy, I always seem to pick the checkout line that moves the slowest. Well last night I'm waiting in this line for seriously 15 minutes and I was getting really pissed off. The lady in front of me had 3 different orders because she was using her food stamps. Well I was a cashier for Festival back home for about 2 years and I had to deal with a number of these. Not only do they have a million separate orders, but you have to look at each item and make sure it's the right brand and to make sure it's the right amount. So basically it takes forever and it's kind of annoying. Now I have nothing against food stamps for people who actually need them, but when the person who is using them has a designer purse, gold jewelry, and is in an expensive pair of heels I get a little annoyed.
